It was then I sawthe Cloistered House within and learned what was afoot. " "In the Earl's carriage indeed--and the Earl?" "He was in Ireland, burrowing among those tarnished baubles, his titles, and stripping the Irish Peter to clothe the English Paul. " "He means to make Hamley his home? From Ireland these furnishings come?" "So it seems. Henceforth the Cloistered House will have its doors flungwide. London and all the folk of Parliament will flutter along the dunesof Hamley. " "Then the baili...ff will sit yonder within a year, for he is but a starvedIrish peer. " "He lives to-day as though he would be rich tomorrow. He bids for fameand fortune, Davy. " "'Tis as though a shirtless man should wear a broadcloth coat over acotton vest. " "The world sees only the broadcloth coat. For the rest--" "For the rest, Faith?" "They see the man's face, and--" His eyes were embarrassed. A thought had flashed into his mind which heconsidered unworthy, for this girl beside him was little likely to dwellupon the face of a renegade peer, whose living among them was a constantreminder of his father's apostasy.
